visuals are really underwhelming ... 60 fps, i guess. :\

Unless you can compare it to something significantly better looking that doesn't run at under 30fps on consoles, and explain why, I am not taking you seriously. It looks good. Not blowing anything else away but it runs better than most by a factor of 2, if not slightly more while still looking contemporary and sharp.

I think visuals look decent. I mean, I wouldn't have expected any more from COD.

Good idea. Heck there's maybe half a second of first person footage.

Just finished Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare and when visiting Gamersyde, I see this trailer - had completed forgotten about it being revealed today, but was a very nice suprise.

Trailer was great and the game looks gorgeous. It actually looks much better than Battlefield 1 looked. It even looks better than the CG trailer of Call of Duty 3, which looked fantastic at the time and made me want to play a game at that quality.

I also like that they're using many famous and actors, and the story looks like it will be interesting. Great trailer overall. I hope the final game delivers.

Not a trailer for the archives. "Actual In-game Footage", yeah I think its very clear. Unless they actually went out of their way to make a completely unimpressive CGI prerendered video, there was no need to tell us that.

They had the chance to do something really special here and blew it. Something like quotes from the leaders at the the time over the trailer along with a Micheal Giacchino style Medal of Honor theme would have been respectable and awesome.
Instead they went for Rambo at Normandy who, OF COURSE, is American.

If COD is going back to its roots like they said, there better be 2 other characters you play somewhere else in the war too. Its already rumored you will get to play a female soldier in the French resistance, pretty much just like in Medal of Honor Underground.

Say what you want but at least they didn't put a shitty cover song for a historical game like the battlefield 1 trailer. Aside the shitty song the bf1 trailer was better but they completely ruined it for me.

I actually think BF1 looks a LOT better than this, and its doing a whole heap more technically. But i will say the return to ww2 is a good choice and i'm up for it as long as the campaign isn't 4 hours long.

So... we've come full circle. All we need now is to have ID release a "Return Return to Castle Wolfenstein" and we're good to go.

No, just totally redo Return to Castle Wolfenstein (with only a few changes), multiplayer and all, but on their upgraded engine. Oh, my how I'd love that.

I'll be shocked if this is like any kind of remake.

Splash Damage made a great new multiplayer shooter a few years ago and no one played it.
